3M™ Petrifilm™ High-Sensitivity Coliform Count Plates for coliform enumeration are designed to accommodate 5mL samples which allow for detection of low levels of bacteria in 24 hours.

By accommodating a 5mL sample, the 3M™ Petrifilm™ High-Sensitivity Coliform Count Plates allow for the detection of low levels of coliforms in 24 hours. They are sample-ready to use at any time to streamline your testing process. One 3M™ Petrifilm™ High-Sensitivity Count Plate at a 1:5 dilution takes the place of three standard pour plates for 1 CFU/gram testing. This will reduce your overall cost per test while easily conforming to higher sensitivity standards. The indicator dye and built in grid allows fast accurate identification of colonies. These plates are especially suitable for use in facilities producing dairy products that have strict internal quality standards, demand a high-sensitivity test that can deliver results quickly and accurately. This allows more time to monitor critical control points. A survey of 274 plants who converted to 3M™ Petrifilm™ Plates from traditional agar methods found an average labour savings of 45% and an average increased technician efficiency of 80%.
